Dear Families,
First thing's first: we want to give our sophomores a huge pat on the back for completing their first subject area of state testing. The English Language Arts test was completed this week. But this was just the beginning. Please see the information in the What Do You Need to Know? section for upcoming testing date, as we have several happening next week. Encourage your tester to get a good night of rest pretty much every day next week to help their minds stay focused.
Check out all we have going on here at the high school!
